The turbo darts dont do well after 100k. They all have the complex multi air brick. oil pressure and noids. Oil pump has a low pressure and high pressure side. Screens between block and heads plug up then the multi air dont work right.
2.4 Auto is the best combo. I love mine as a parts runner with a mini stroker kit to 2.8 vs 2.4.
Probably the worst car to buy for a youngster other then the 10 airbags seems like great protection imo.
Lots around cheap now as the majority are out of warranty. Lots of electrical gremlins.Lots of 2.4s drink oil. The turbo stick cars trans are shot at 100k, thousands to fix.
Complex and hard to work on and not very serviceable.
